Special Precautions
In case severe, unexplained abdominal pain persist or worsens, or occurs together with symptoms like fever, nausea, vomiting, changes in bowel movements, abdominal tenderness, decreased blood pressure, fainting or blood in stool, appropriate diagnostic measures are needed to investigate the etiology of the symptoms.
Precaution and observation are needed for the use of Hyoscine Butylbromide injection in patients with heart disease.
Elevation of intraocular pressure may be produced by the administration of anticholinergic agents such as Hyoscine Butylbromide in patients with undiagnosed and therefore untreated narrow angle glaucoma. Therefore, patients should seek urgent ophthalmological advice in case they should develop a painful, red eye with loss of vision after the injection of Hyoscine Butylbromide.
After parenteral administration of Hyoscine Butylbromide, cases of anaphylaxis including episodes of shock have been observed. As with all drugs causing such reactions, patients receiving Hyoscine Butylbromide by injection should be kept under observation.
Effects on ability to drive and use machines: There are no studies on the effect on the ability to drive and use machines. However, patients should be advised that they may experience undesirable effects such as accommodation disorders or dizziness during treatment with Hyoscine Butylbromide injection. Therefore, caution should be recommended when driving a car or operating machinery. If patients experience accommodation disorder or dizziness, potentially hazardous tasks such as driving or operating machinery should be avoid.
Use in Pregnancy & Lactation: Data on the use of Hyoscine Butylbromide in pregnant women are limited. Animal studies have shown no direct or indirect adverse effects to reproductive toxicity. Information on the excretion of Hyoscine Butylbromide and its metabolites in human milk is limited.
As a precautionary measure, it is preferable to avoid the use of Hyoscine Butylbromide during pregnancy and lactation.
No studies have been conducted on the effects of human fertility.
